Cheryl lost over over 40lbs and she keeps going!! WOW!! Next goal is the Great Aloha Run! I have faith in you Cheryl!!

Working out with MarlonI woke up feeling tired, achy, and just fat for the past 3 years. Its amazing how 3 years of unacceptable behavior creeps up on you physically. My definition of unacceptable behavior is too much food, too much tv, eating too late at night, too little exercise. I’ve had the 24 hours a day gym type of membership with 24 hours per year maybe utilized. It’s May 2010, and I’m at the Aiea High School track making an attempt to jog around one lap, just a quarter-mile non-stop, huffing my way through it. Marlon walks up to me and hands me a card to ask me if I’m serious about working out, then I should check out his website, then consider working with him.

One week and three calls later I’m meeting him at a Starbucks with my Soy Latte. I write down my fitness level, write down my goal and what I would expect in 3 months. Honestly, if I could run one mile, non-stop, lose 20 lbs, that would be awesome to me. He told me it was possible, showed me some pictures, and help me to see that I was worth the investment in myself. I gave him my commitment to have him help me live a healthier lifestyle, went home and wrote down all the reasons why I had to do this.

Tired of being tired Want to look better

Want to feel better Want to fit in all of my clothes again

Want to be a better mom Want to be a better wife

Be proud of me Want to hike Diamond Head

Want to run a 5K Sick of buying fatter clothes

Sick of wearing SPANX Don’t want to die of cancer

Want to look great at Christmas

Then I wrote what I expected after 3 monthsLose at least 2 dress sizes Lose 30 lbsFeel better Run 1 mile non stop

The journey began….first week of personal training, I’m worried, but excited about working out. He tells me we’re going to jog. So we run, maybe 30 seconds and I’m huffing, so I walk. But it was okay, because Marlon kept me going. Then after our warm up run, which takes me almost 30 minutes to complete, we do simple strength training things. Immediately after the first couple of weeks, I feel so much better. My head is clearer, my posture is better, clothes fit better, so soon! Because I felt so much better, I signed my husband up with Marlon too, to do his own workouts.

All through the weeks, Marlon constantly encourages me about my workouts and my eating. Call it trainer’s intuition but he always knew to text me words of encouragement just when I contemplated that cookie in the office. Physically I felt great, my feet wasn’t swollen anymore, I can sit on the floor and actually get up without any help, I could run a quarter mile after 4 weeks non stop. After 8 weeks I ran my first mile. I am physically stronger, and that made me feel mentally stronger.

By the end of the 3 months, I lost a total of 25 lbs, could run 1.5 miles non-stop, dropped 2 dress sizes and gained tons of confidence. I never felt healthier in years, haven’t looked better in years. I’ve hired gym trainers before, but it seemed the workouts were static and not fit to me. Marlon customized the workouts to me, constantly changing. I get bored easily. Working out with Marlon is not easy at all. He will challenge you, push you, and make you wish the hour was already over. I would laugh at some of the things he wanted me to physically do, but I would always trust him and try. Who knew I could squat that low without falling flat on my butt? Marlon is patient but relentless. He would listen to my concerns about my diet and give me ideas. In the end, it always was up to me on what I wanted to accomplish, but hiring Marlon as my personal trainer was worth the investment in me, and I’m glad I did. Marlon is the Best Personal Trainer!

After meeting with Personal trainer Marlon...I was hooked!!
Thank you Marlon for the confidence and the new body!! Your the best!! Both my husband and I thank you!! MAHALO!!

What are you made of?That's what a month of personal training with Marlon makes you ask yourself. My goal was to drop my body fat by 2% to get back in the National Guard. I was at 250lbs and 24% body fat. My wife Cheryl already started training with Marlon and she suggested giving him a chance to help me. Being a soldier, I knew given the right training methods and the motivation to push and dig deep within me I would get the results I desired. My personal trainer Marlon did not let up! He schooled me in workouts and nutrition. His dedication to my success was relentless. Three days a week for one month. There were days he pushed me so hard I wanted to throw up, and when we were done all I wanted to do was shower and sleep. I felt I accomplished a lot with Marlon's help.At the end of my month I dropped over 20lbs and lost 4% body fat. Waist went from a 42 to a 38 in just one month, no more gut! Marlon helped me reach my physical goal and in return I gained greater confidence in my appearance and a new attitude in my diet, eat to fuel my body. I passed my physical and got sworn into the Army National Guard's 29th Brigade Support Battalion. What am I made of? Determination, strength, dedication, and courage for my family and my country, thanks Marlon for reinforcing that. Marlon is the Best Personal Trainer!Semper Gumby"....Always Flexible...."Barney J.G.

"I felt good after every workout and he was attentive to my energy levels. With blood sugar concerns, I was still able to do a challenging excercise in a healthy way. I look forward to losing lots of weight."

Tisha W.Web & Graphic DesignerHonolulu, Hawaii

"Making a commitment to your program has completely changed the way I feel about exercise!! I was very apprehensive about hiring a personal trainer because I wasn't sure what to expect. Marlon has motivated me in a way I didn't think was possible! I actually feel confident going to the gym and constantly see changes in my body. Working with a personal trainer has made me realize that exercise is not only an amazing stress reliever, but that I actually can achieve the body that I've wanted forever! Not only does Marlon constantly motivate me at the gym, but he also keeps "tabs" on my daily diet and commitment level. I've tried countless exercise routines, diets, etc that did nothing for me and were completely wrong for my body. I finally feel that my time in the gym is worth it because I'm actually getting fast results!!"

"I started working out with Persona Trainer Marlon about a month ago. At the time, I was looking for a personnel trainer who would keep me focused and help me reach my desired physical results. I can honestly say that Marlon has provided me with those two services and more. First of all, I would like to point out that I already started losing weight! People at work keep on telling me that I seem to have lost some weight and it's only been a month! Marlon has been exceptional at keeping me focused. But, what makes my experience with Marlon so unique is that he makes working out a fun experience, while attaining results. Marlon's fun personality makes the work out session go by so quickly! However, just because Marlon makes it fun does not mean he slacks off. Marlon takes his responsibilities as a trainer seriously; he always makes sure that I'm doing the workouts correctly so I don't hurt myself. He also cares that I attain my goals. He always asks what I did on the days I didn't work out with him and what I've been eating. I feel very lucky to have been able to find a personal trainer like Marlon because I can sincerely say that he really cares about helping me. Thank you for being such a great trainer and keeping me on track, Marlon!
